🚨 Postdoctoral Position Available – Biophysical Modeling in the English Channel–Atlantic Region 🌊🔬

We are recruiting a Postdoctoral Researcher (12-month position, Sep 2025–Aug 2026) at LOG – Laboratoire d'Océanologie et de Géosciences (Wimereux, France) to join the interdisciplinary GreyCo project, funded by OFB.

🧬 Project Title:
Biophysical modeling of pelagic phase dispersion in benthic species: enhancing simulation sensitivity to biological parameters.

🌍 Context:
Benthic species depend on their pelagic larval stage for dispersal and connectivity between distant populations. With the expansion of offshore infrastructures (e.g., wind farms), understanding how artificial structures influence connectivity is more relevant than ever.

Using the Lagrangian individual-based model Ichthyop (driven by CROCO simulations), this project explores how physical and biological parameters influence larval transport and settlement in the Bay of Biscay and English Channel.

🧪 Main Missions:

  • Review current knowledge on biological parameters impacting larval connectivity modeling.
  • Design and run sensitivity experiments.
  • Improve representation of larval development in simulations.

👩‍💻 Required Profile:

  • PhD in oceanography, marine ecology, applied math, or a related field.
  • Strong background in numerical modeling and scientific programming (Python, MATLAB...).
  • Team-oriented and autonomous, with solid scientific communication skills.

📩 Apply by May 30, 2025:
Send your CV, cover letter, 2 references, and modeling experience statement (max. 2 pages) to: 👉 elena.al...@univ-littoral.fr
